  • Brighteye 24 SDI to Analog Converter and Disembedder
    BrightEyeTM 24 SDI to Analog Converter and Disembedder User Guide ENSEMBLE DESIGNS Revision 3.0 SW v1.0.8 This user guide provides detailed information for using the BrightEye™24 SDI to Analog Converter and Disembedder unit. The information is organized into the following sections: • Product Overview • Functional Description • Applications • Rear Connectors • Operation • Front Panel Controls Indicators • BrightEye PC • Warranty and Factory Service • Specifications • Glossary BrightEye-1 BrightEye 24 SDI to Analog Converter and Disembedder PRODUCT OVERVIEW BrightEye™ 24 is both a digital to analog video converter as well as an audio dis- embedder. The incoming serial digital video signal is converted to an analog composite signal, while digital audio signals embedded in the digital video signal are extracted and converted to analog outputs. Front panel controls select analog reference level, AES group for disembedding, and provide gain adjustment. Input presence and output VU information are indicated as well. The BrightEye PC Control application is provided to allow more detailed control of the unit from a PC with USB support. A glossary of commonly used video terms is provided at the end of this manual. FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION BrightEye 24 combines a video digital to analog converter with an audio dis- embedder (demux) and audio digital to analog converter. The input to the module is a standard definition 601 digital signal (SDI) at either 525 (NTSC) or 625 (PAL) line rate. The SDI input is digitally encoded to composite video and then converted to analog form for output on the Cpst Out BNC connector. The encoder will switch automatically between NTSC and PAL to follow the line standard detected on the SDI input.

  • Tektronix Television Systems Measurement Concepts 062-1064-00
    Measurement Concepts Television Systems TELEVISION SYSTEM MEASUREMENTS BY GERALD A. EASTMAN MEASUREMENT CONCEPTS INTRODUCTION The primary intent of this book is to acquaint the reader with the functional elements of a television broadcast studio and some of the more common diagnostic and measurement concepts on which video measurement techniques are based. In grouping the functional elements of the broadcasting studio, two areas of primary concern can be identified -- video signal sources and the signal routing path from the source to the transmitter. The design and maintenance of these functional elements is based in large measure on their use and purpose. Understanding the use and purpose of any device always enhances the engineer's or technician's ability to maintain the performance initially designed into the equipment. The functional elements of the broadcast studio will be described in the first portion of this book including a brief discussion of how these functional elements interrelate to form an integrated system. In the broadcasting studio, once the video sources and routing systems are initially established, maintaining quality control of both the sources and the routing path becomes one of the major concerns of the broadcast engineer. Since the picture information is transmitted as a video waveform, quality control can in large measure be accomplished in terms of waveform distortions and subjective picture quality degradations. Four major test waveforms, each designed to observe and measure a specific type of distortion, are commonly used in a broadcast studio. The diagnostic information contained in each waveform will be described in the latter portion of this book in terms of the measurements commonly made with each of the four waveforms.

    Application Note Critical RF Measurements in Cable, Satellite and Terrestrial DTV Systems The secret to maintaining reliable and high-quality services over different digital television transmission systems is to focus on critical factors that may compromise the integrity of the system.

It is equally at home Despite a multi-fold increase in operating in NTSC and PAL operations, and this will give functions, the front panel of the 5212 remains us an opportunity to compare monitoring aspects simple and familiar. Look at Figure 2-1. The of both systems in this issue. Other operating INPUT selectors show a choice of three features that will be covered include 3-channel channels plus an EXTernal reference. The latter operation, simplified, high-resolution may raise a question because the sync REF key measurements of differential gain and phase, also refers to INT/EXT. So what's EXT doing in precise inter-signal phase measurements, Y/C the INPUT group? The answer is that keying operation, and the use of the vectorscope in EXT in the INPUT group causes the burst of the stereo monitoring. Other aspects include menu- external reference to appear on the vector selected calibration, the use of presets and display.
